Abstract. This paper examines technology developed to support largescale distributed digital libraries. We describe the method used for harvesting collection information using stan...
Emulation sits between simulation and experimentation to complete the set of tools available for software designers to evaluate their software and predict behavior under condition...
We address the problem of shape based classification. We interpret the shape of an object as a probability distribution governing the location of the points of the object. An imag...
In this paper, we introduce the Skellam distribution as a sensor noise model for CCD or CMOS cameras. This is derived from the Poisson distribution of photons that determine the s...
